Assignment #134

Cached-Another Homer Moment

Assignment #107 was a Homer Moment.I showed you how to do something that I had just learned that was so elemental as to be, sadly, funny.Here’s another.

A number of times I’ve Googled something and clicked on a promising result that was already gone or updated.“#*$@,” I said.All I had to do was click on the word CACHED to see the original page that Google had, duh!!, cached.It also works if your system blocks your access to a particular domain, but maybe I wasn’t supposed to tell you that.
